McKenna Leigh!

Everything went perfect with my c-section and the recovery has been great so far. I am still in the hospital but get to go home tomorrow!

Ella loved watching me get ready for surgery and she enjoyed playing with her bag of surprises while she waited.

As I was getting wheeled back to the surgery room I passed all the out of towners coming off the elevator. It was so wonderful to see them right before I went back. Ella was beside herself to see all of her favorite people at once.

The c-section was fast and easy. It is so crazy to be laying on a table numb talking about everyday stuff with my sweet and wonderful Dr. Jennifer Owen and then all of a sudden she holds up McKenna for me to see. Everything was perfect with her! She weighed 7lbs and has a head full of black hair!

Bob rolled McKenna down to the waiting room to see everyone as I was wheeled back to the recovery room for 45 minutes.

We are just loving life with our little family of 4 now!
And a huge shout out to my wonderful friend Brittany for taking the most amazing pictures of this special day. Thank you!
